New Mini Courses: Photos, Automator and Final Cut Pro
I'm excited to announce that I have not one, but three new courses! These are all 10-lesson mini courses on subjects that people have been asking me to cover. Mini courses won't take up as much of your time as my regular longer courses, and come in at half the price.

Getting To Know Mac Photos covers Photos 6.0 in macOS Big Sur. Learn the basics of using the Mac Photos app to store, organize and edit your photos.

Getting Started With Automator teaches you the basics of using Automator on your Mac to create workflows to accomplish simple tasks. No coding required!

Final Cut Pro Quick Start For Beginners is a course for those that have purchased Apple's advanced video editing tool. This introduction is designed to get you using the app to create video projects quickly.

As I have always done before, there is a special coupon to celebrate the launch of these three courses. Use the code pistachio to get 40% off the regular price for these courses! The courses are usually $19.95 USD each, but with this code you'll get them for $11.97 USD each. The code is good until the end of next week.

When you buy a course at the MacMost Courses site, you can take as long as you like to view the lessons and return to watch them as often as you like.

The new courses are listed on the right side of the main home page for the Courses site. Click on any one to read more about it, view a table of contents, and watch a sample lesson if you like. The code pistachio takes 40% off the price for each of these three courses when you get to the Cart page. Remember to check that it is applied to the "Total" price before you check out.

Go to the MacMost Courses website to find out more!

Thanks!

Mac Basics: Using Modifier Keys
The modifier keys on your Mac keyboard are the Command, Option, Control, Shift and fn keys. You use them for keyboard shortcuts and other functions. Since they differ from Windows modifier keys, it can take new Mac users time to learn how to use them.

Creating Template Files For Any App On Your Mac
You can turn a regular file into a template file using the Stationery Pad or Locked file attributes. This lets you start a new file with the content in an existing file, but insures that you don't accidentally overwrite the template.
